Hi christine and welcome to the forum

In an IVA you will be required to pay over 50% of any overtime (after a first 10% allowance) to your creditors.

If you receive an inheritance this will also have to be handed over to your creditors, to the extent of the level of your outstanding liabilities including interest together with the costs to date of the volutnary arrangement.
Regards, Melanie Giles, Insolvency Practitioner

The it is not yours so the windfall provision is not relevant - although she could gift you some of the money to make a full and final offer of settlement to your creditors!
